Trail Cooking

Heat the oven to 400.

Spread the nuts on a cookie sheet and roast until the nuts darken, about 10 minutes. Dampen a clean kitchen towel and rub the nuts in the towel to loosen the skins.

Using a food processor or high power blender, grind the nuts to nut butter state. This will take up to 5 minutes.

Add the powdered sugar, cocoa, vanilla, salt and oil and continue processing until well blended, about a minute more.

The final spread should be smooth like creamy peanut butter. If it is too dry, slowly add in a bit more oil till you get the right texture.

Store in a tightly sealed airtight container in the refrigerator. Use up within a week or so, as the oils can go stale. Like it will be hard to not eat it though!
